310. Attack the heart first
From various documents and film and television works, we can often see such a scene - in the war, some soldiers could not stand the torture of long-term trench warfare, and rushed out to fight the enemy desperately, which also caused the largest casualties in the history of modern warfare, especially during the two world wars.
That's because the silence after the chaos is extremely unbearable. This transition between movement and stillness is particularly difficult, and it has become the easiest problem to exploit and the most difficult to control in large-scale positional warfare.
The Indians in the woods had quietly taken refuge in the safe zone, and they had discovered the most important thing - the new fleet was fierce, but it did not seem to mean to hurt anyone. This makes them very incomprehensible, all along, these outsiders have been robbing if they can, and killing if they can't, how can they be so polite?
There must be a scam in it! This was generally recognized in the minds of the Indians. But after waiting for a long time, even the flames on the edge of the woods were almost dissipating, and these outsiders still did not attack!
As a result, some of the Indians became restless and agitated, and they wondered what these outsiders were trying to do. Although the leader had ordered to stay put, there were still some people who felt the anger in their chests and wanted to rush out and fight to the death with the guys outside!
Although they knew that the result would be death, the Indian warriors were not afraid of death!
In the woods, two very different ideas arose in the minds of the Indians. Some wanted to rush out, others wanted to delay as long as possible until it was completely dark, so they could escape.
Just when these guys were forced to go crazy by two choices, there was a noise outside the woods, and it was actually in a language they could understand: "Put down your arms, don't kill!" Lay down your arms and don't kill! β
It sounds like at least a hundred people shouting out together, does the other side want to talk peacefully? But I haven't heard of anyone who can communicate with each other before! This made the Indians more cautious, and they waited quietly to see what the people outside meant.
The phrase came in again: "Lay down your arms and surrender!" Lay down your arms and surrender! β
As a result, some grumpy Indian warriors were not happy! Wow wow! We only have Indian warriors who died in battle, and there are no Indian warriors who surrendered! So they rushed out of the jungle with a scream, despite the suppression of the chief!
As a result, "bang" a few gunshots rang out, and one by one the guys who rushed out returned to the woods with a limp. The other side shot! But instead of hitting the vital point, they chose the leg that was not fatal. The Indians in the woods looked at each other, not knowing what to do, so they turned their eyes to the chief.
The chief sat on a large rock, and for a long time he was silent, and looked intently out of the woods. While "he" was pondering, a louder voice came from outside the woods: "Surrender!" Otherwise, kill! Surrender! Otherwise, kill! β
With the sound of surrender, the terrible cannon on the opposite side opened fire again! The roaring cannonballs with the sound of tearing through the air exploded one after another closer than just now, still a semicircle!
It seems that this is the last warning. The leader thought to himself, his eyes flashing, and he suddenly stood up and shouted out into the woods: "Chamcham! Singled out! Lose, surrender! Win, Freedom! β
It's a little girl's voice! But then, as if greatly inspired, all the Indians shouted in unison: "Chamcham! Singled out! Lose, surrender! Win, Freedom! β
"Chamcham! Singled out! Lose, surrender! Win, Freedom! β
After shouting twice, he fell silent again, quietly waiting for an answer from outside the woods.
I stood on the side of the ship and turned my head to look at Wayne Nash - the shout was taught by Wayne Nash to the sailors, and now that there is a response inside, I naturally need Wayne Nash to be a translator.
"They...... They offered to go head-to-head! Captain" Wayne Nash's face was a little ugly: "That's what the owner of the Port St. John shipyard said, I saw Chamcham who must escape!" β
I frowned slightly, I still remember the seriousness of the shipyard owner's words vividly, what is this Champ Cham sacred?
Looking at my inquiring eyes, Wayne Nash shook his head and thought for a while before replying: "There is indeed a large tribe of Indians around here, but their leader is called Tamu Tamu, not Chamcham, could it be a person?" β
I silently recited Tamu Tamu and Chamcham, and suddenly asked, "You say, could it be that the leader has changed, but in fact it is still that tribe?" By the way, do you know how strong the Tamu Tamu is? β
Wayne Nash had a solemn look on his face and said solemnly: "If it's Tamu Tamu, I'm ...... I don't recommend going head-to-head with him! This man is more than seven feet tall, and he is accustomed to a one-handed knife of four feet and five inches, and his movements are extremely fast and powerful! When our first expedition came, many people fell into the hands of this person. But ......"
He looked at the woods for a long time, and Fang continued: "But Chamcham, I really don't understand. β
When I heard this, I smiled slightly, understood the situation, and said, "Tell him that we will agree to their heads-up request!" Let them come to the beach and I give them a fair chance! β
Wayne Nash looked at me in surprise, and I lightly pointed to the woods and said, "Translate! β
This guy had no choice but to swallow his saliva, and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Captain, are you planning to bring them all out again for ......?"
As he spoke, his palm made a downward cutting motion like a knife blade!
The implication is that he thinks I am a deceitful person, and he wants to lure all the enemies out, so that he can catch them all!
I shook my head and said in a low voice: "The way of using soldiers, attacking the heart is the top, and attacking the city is the bottom; Psychological warfare is the top, and military warfare is the bottom. You misunderstood me! β
Hua Mei said on the side: "Back then, Wuhou captured seven and seven longitudinal Meng and secured permanent peace in southern Xinjiang, which was exactly this method. This Indian and the Southern Barbarian belong to the same race, but there must be something in common, and Qilan's idea is reasonable! But ......"
I looked at Hua Mei with a smile and listened to what she wanted to say, but Hua Mei smiled and said, "But I don't think you should fight, just choose someone else to fight!" β
I couldn't help but say, "Why, when you hear that the other party is powerful, you don't believe me?" I'd like to meet the leader of the meeting, the legendary Chamcham, and see how capable he really is! β
What else did Huamei say, I shook my hand and looked at Wayne Nash and said, "Translation! β
Wayne Nash gave Hua Mei a helpless look, as if hoping that she would persuade me. Hua Mei glanced at me, showing a look that was half helpless and half appreciative, sighed, and nodded.
Wayne Nash shrunk his neck and said in his heart that you two don't care, then I won't persuade you. Then he called the group of people who had just shouted and taught them how to shout.
"Sand, duel! Fair! Sand, duel! Fair! The loud voice drifted along the trade winds towards the woods.
The leader of the Indians, Chamcham, seemed stunned when he heard our answer, he had no idea that these outsiders on the other side would agree to fight alone! All along, in his impression, outsiders are cunning, cruel, and vicious, and they are only good at using the demon's stick to cast spells from afar to hurt their own people!
But today, they actually agreed to the request of heads-up? Why is that?
Just as he was about to go out, an elder behind him grabbed his wrist and whispered, "Chief! Outsiders are cunning, beware of traps! β
Chamcham seemed to smile, looked back at the still burning woods, and resolutely replied, "Elder, the other party's witchcraft is powerful, and we have nowhere to hide!" Since they all have to die, it is better to fight, maybe there is a chance to subdue the leader of the other party and exchange for life! β
The elder was still not at ease, he grabbed Chamcham's wrist even harder, and said in a very low but resolute tone: "It's better to go out and fight for you alone, leader, you leave quietly from behind, go to your brother Tamu Tamu, and let him come back to avenge us!" We buy you time! β
Chamcham glanced around, and several warriors puffed up their chests, saying that they were willing to participate in this dangerous duel for him, in exchange for the leader to escape!
A trace of warmth flashed in Chamcham's eyes, and he suddenly shook off the elder's hand vigorously, and said solemnly: "Brother Tamu Tamu has gone out to practice, and I am now the leader of the tribe!" When the tribe is in trouble, the leader can die in battle, but he can't run away, this is the rule! β
The elder still said with a reluctant face: "Chief, although you are strong in martial arts, you ...... But you're only fifteen after all! And you're still ......."
"Enough!" Chamcham shouted: "Age can't change anything! I'm a leader, I'm a warrior! Even if it's death, you have to be upright! Do you dare to go out with me? β
The Indians were immediately inspired by the leader's momentum, and even those wounded in the legs jumped up one by one, saying that they would die with the leader!
The elder sighed helplessly, took out some green powder from the animal skin bag around his waist, and said something in his mouth. When Chamcham heard this, he immediately knelt on one knee and bowed his head slightly. The fighters behind also fell to their knees and kowtowed to the ground!
This is a sΓ©ance ritual in the tribe, and it is one of the most solemn ceremonies! It is said to bless warriors with divine power and bless them with victory over strong enemies!
The elder read for a long time, sprinkled the green powder on Chamcharm's head, and patted Chamcham's shoulder with a shout, and shouted loudly! All the warriors, including Chamcham, roared together! The sound was so neat that we could hear it from afar on the boat!
"It's their leader ready to fight!" Wayne Nash grimaced: "It seems that they still do the rituals, anyway, it's supernatural, Captain, this ......"
I smiled slightly, gently holding the boy in my hand, and said in my heart, old friend, I didn't use you to fight the enemy, and today I want you to make a contribution! But on second thought, it didn't seem right, so my gaze began to wander over the crowd, and finally fell on one person......
The sun is getting lower and lower, and with the afterglow of the setting sun, many people come out of the woods! Most of them* are wearing upper bodies, and about half of them are wounded, but their expressions are solemn and their fighting spirit is high! If it weren't for the fact that we were fighting with white knives, we might not be the opponents of these barbarians!
Their formation stopped, outside the sand out of the woods. A figure came out of the crowd and walked towards us slowly, but extremely firmly!
I looked at it intently, wondering if I was wrong?
The person who came out on the opposite side was less than 1.6 meters tall, and his figure looked like a child, a girl! The dark green hair was tied up with some dye. Leopard skins are wrapped in important parts of the body, and the rest of the body is bare! In her hand she was holding a huge boomerang, the kind of flyer, which I think was at least half as tall as her!
There was a small black shadow riding on my shoulder, but when I looked closely, it was a small monkey! This girl is petite and exquisite, just beginning to develop, and the front and back are still very out of tune, but there is already a prototype of a little beauty embryo!
I looked at Wayne Nash quizzically and asked, "Is this tribe into wheel warfare?" Will the weakest come first? β
Wayne Nash was even more confused, shaking his head and saying, "No! This...... This! β
While we were stunned, the little girl below pulled her throat and shouted in a tone that was as low and thick as possible: "I am the leader Chamcham, who will fight me!" Get off board! β
I could hear the sound of my glasses shattering! Nani! Chamcham...... Is it a girl? Champcham-chan?
